I haven't seen anybody talking about this game, but it's a tough choice. Do you root for our sworn enemy of the Raiders, who we hate with a fiery passion, when their win would benefit us? Or do you root for the Chargers, who we really don't hate all that much, but whose presence could keep us out of the playoffs?

No cop out answers on this one. Make your choice.

Oh Come on..this is easy.....root for the Raiders. The Raiders have nothing left to play for but Pride. The Bolts could be thes best team to NOT make the playoffs. I see the Bolts winning this game easily though.

A rivalry is one thing, but the rivalry doesn't mean near as much as making it to the playoffs. So I would have to go with the Raiders. Overall I would prefer an asteroid hitting the stadium or possibly the bubonic plague nailing both teams locker rooms would be preferable.

I thought about making something like that a third option, but I figured it would end up being a pretty much unanimous vote.

We need the Chargers to lose, and lose, and lose. I think we're gonna have a tough time beating them on tiebreakers.

Of course, you want the Raiders to win this game. They have the worse record.

Look at it this way, you are not rooting for the Raiders, you are rooting against the Chargers.

If we want a WC spot there is no choice but to root against the Chargers. Thankfully I hate SD almost as much after having to put up with their fans on a daily basis.

I hate the Raiders more than any other team but there's no way in hell I'd pick a Raider loss over a Chief playoff birth...

I voted to root for the Chargers because the idiot who came up with this, the lamest poll of the year, actuallly offered it as a choice...

Besides, I hate the word "unanimously"...

Our interests are better-served by a San Diego loss.

Crap, I screwed up my vote. I want the Raiders to win because I'm really worried about the Chargers getting our playoff spot. I guess old habits die hard.

This isn't even a close call.

1) I'd always vote in the Chiefs' best interest before I'd vote against a hated rival. No sense in cutting off one's nose to spite one's face.

2) Not only is it better for the Chiefs's playoff chances if the Raiders win, but it's also better for the Chiefs because it will impact the Raiders' draft position next spring. I don't want the Raiders drafting any earlier than necessary.

3) If the Raiders lose every game, Al Davis will get smart and fire Norv Turner and look for a better QB. If they play well down the stretch, he might decide to keep them around for another underachieving year.

A Raiders win is good for the Chiefs in lots of ways. In that context and that context only: Go Raiders!

Heh...guess this wasn't much of a contest. Oh well.

I figured there'd be at least a couple die hard Raider Haters out there, but glad to know everyone's on the right track. :)

I don't have a huge issue with my choice. I just look at it as rooting against the Chargers rather than for the Faiders.

Hopefully nobody has any chargers on your FF team. Easy choice, route for a chargers loss to help the Chiefs.

no question ... the faiders

there out of the playoff race so i want them to win enough to screw up their draft pick.... 7-9 sounds like a nice record. :D
